As
“Inferno” approaches its October 12 opening across the
Philippines, Columbia Pictures has revealed individual character
posters for its principal cast led by Tom Hanks as Robert Langdon.

Once
again, the international setting of the tale Dan Brown has spun
offered the filmmakers a chance to surround Hanks with a cast of
global actors: the British Felicity Jones as Sienna Brooks; US actor
Ben Foster as the the bioengineer Bertrand Zobrist; French actor Omar
Sy as Christoph Bouchard; and Indian star Irrfan Khan as Harry Sims.

“One
of the thrilling aspects of a Dan Brown story is that the
international setting truly offers the opportunity to cast the best
person for the role, regardless of their nationality,” says
producer Brian Grazer. “It’s important and necessary, because one
of the ways Ron is telling the story of Langdon’s global adventure
is in surrounding him with a cast that looks and sounds like the
entire world.”

Academy
Award® winner Ron Howard returns to direct the latest bestseller in
Dan Brown’s (Da Vinci Code) billion-dollar Robert Langdon series,
Inferno, which finds the famous symbologist (again played by Tom
Hanks) on a trail of clues tied to the great Dante himself. When
Langdon wakes up in an Italian hospital with amnesia, he teams up
with Sienna Brooks (Felicity Jones), a doctor he hopes will help him
recover his memories. Together, they race across Europe and against
the clock to stop a madman from unleashing a global virus that would
wipe out half of the world’s population.

“Inferno”
is distributed by Columbia Pictures in the Philippines, local office
of Sony Pictures Releasing International. #InfernoMovie
